We have just received q copy Of an open let
ter from Fayette Marsh to T.. s. Brown. receiver.
We also have on file copy of Receiver Browns
annual report Tor March !, 1887, and copy Of the
report made by the commissioners who ap.
pointed by Judge VIM. Mcclure to examine into
the correctness Of Mr.. Browns accounts and
ports. 1t appears from the commissioners report
that Mr.. Marsh and others. appeared before the
commission and made desperate but unsuccess.
full effort to impeach the correctness of Mr..
Browns last annual report. which was made
der the supervision Of Mr.. Brown and his able
assistant and attorney, H. G. Stone and J. N. Cas-
tie. From the tone OF Mr. Marsh's letter we are
led to believe that the statement of March !,
1887. has proved to be Brown.Stone Castle that
